Nurses to strike

[Barry]

Don't have to have loads of cash, it's about £22 a month per person. Never actually used it but I know if I did I would be straight in.

Are you talking BUPA or something similar? Those prices are age and medical condition dependent aren't they?
They refuse to cover some existing conditions, or cancers?
No, I believe in a form of national health service, but not the NHS we have at the moment.

You really are a rabid Tory.  (I would comment NHS consultants work in the private sector on a regular basis, have you any complaints about that? )

Not my fault if you can't understand plain English.

What I would do is make damn sure they are not allowed to go to work in the private hospitals whilst striking.

Yes the plebs can easily afford that.

Great so those with lots of cash won't be able to escape the trials of life the plebs have to navigate.

How can you divorce the NHS from politics and maintain public ownership? It's not functioning and is getting worse and while it is guaranteed it's annual funding it will continue to abuse it no matter who is in Government.

I didn't say divorce it from  politics I said political ideology.

Ive been saying for a long time it should be administered cross party.

What would you propose privatise it?
